Purpose, Passions, Pursuit: Half Way There!

Wow, we have finished our first two weeks of OE and I'm sitting here in my room waiting for week 3 to start! This is crazy. The last two weeks have been very draining but SO MUCH FUN! The kids have been so endearing. I am learning a few different things. First is that I love Elementary ages more than any other age. They are so into the interesting things that we have to tell them. They still listen to use because they think that we are soo cool , and we are soo cool, and they have very curious minds and ask a ton of questions! I love that so much.

Second thing that I am learning is that I love teaching. Before this, OE, I wasn't sure what I was going to do with my life and where I was going. But now, hopefully this wont change when I get home, I really want to pursue teaching elementary ages.

I just went home this last weekend to visit and just rest on my long weekend off and I didn't want to leave at the end of the weekend. I just wanted to stay and get stated with school. I wanted to stay home and reconnect with friends and find a job. I wanted to stay and dive into the college group and get to know new people. When the weekend came to an end I didn't want to leave. But, this is where God has me for now. Ministering to an age group that I love. If God is going to teach as much as he did in these last three week in these next two weeks then I'm stoked for it!

So just I have been talking about how I have been teaching this class on insect but I haven't posted any pictures. So here ya go!( NOTE: I only teach girl bu ton small weeks my partner, Chief, will each teach just one class instead of two and so most of the pictures are from his class when I didn't have to teach) When I start out my class we go on a hike and i hike them to a giant red wood ant hill. The ants have been building this hill for about three years!
